Offense has been a disaster. OL is overmatched, and Osweiler is locking on a receiver, off-target, and not showing any poise. Special teams allowing a TD isn't helping either.

I'm having a hard time understanding how Tom Savage couldn't do anything and everything BO is doing (the positive, I mean), and possibly better.
I'm also having a hard time understanding how Alfred Freaking Blue is more productive than Lamar Miller.

Wonder what Osweiler's QB rating is in road games this year? He shouldn't take all the blame though. Wish I could figure why this team has these type of games where they are blown out early. Remember that Dolphins game last year, the one Ryan Mallett didn't even bother to show up for? Games like that keep happening and it mystifies me how they can be so terrible and yet pull out close games elsewhere.
Oh well, if they can beat Indy at home, they'll have their two-game division lead back.

One thing in common seems to be facing a good/great team on the road. Recall last year the Miami and Atlanta games - those were 40+ losses. The team started 2-5 and everyone had written them off (myself included) on the postseason. Then the defense seemed to find themselves, they gave us the lone jewel that was the MNF win over the undefeated Bengals (on the road) and finished the season with a 7-2 record. This year we have the 27-0 shutout at New England and yesterday's 31-13 loss to the Vikings. On the radio a while ago, they were suggesting that the team didn't have enough "dirtbag" mentality... perhaps an offshoot of the high character types we/they seem to accumulate... I dunno....  To me, it's as though under OB's watch, the Texans sometimes morph into a bad Jacksonville Jaguars team... Good/great teams slap them around. After these losses, OB will say "I got to coach better". Our new QB says "I got to play better". Sure is nice of them to identify the problem....  I think in truth, both are still developing. OB is in the third year of his first gig. Brock Osweiler is in his first gig as a starting QB. Whether the team can find an identity and reach a certain level of competence for the rest of the year remains to be seen. BTW, the Texans are the standard 3 pt favorite over the Colts in the upcoming SNF game.... Last edited by Arky; 10-10-2016 at 12:21 PM.

Road: 58.3 Overall: 70.6 Osweiler doesn't seem to be getting better, which is troublesome, but we have to give the Vikings defense a lot of credit, same as other teams have to give the Texans defense credit (ahem, Bears and Chiefs) when their offenses suck. Surprised the opening line per Arky is only about a field goal. The Texans at home against lesser opponents should be closer to a touchdown.
